Pretty fascinating because you can see both sides.

The Bucs should be improved, but also other teams improve and the Bucs have injuries and probabilities (division title streak) working against them

I think we’re in a great spot. 

I’m not much of a gambler, but the betting line seems to be following analysts prognostications - it will be interesting to see if the line changes after camp.

So, from the betters, should we take the over/under on this?

I was able to get in with them at +1800. 

Fortunately for them, they play in an absolute dogshit division. 

So, they should be a lock to get in the playoffs. 

After that, anything can happen.

Wouldn’t it be better taking them now, if I think the line will narrow as everyone sees what many of us think?

(adding in the weak division angle - like Patriots used to have)…

Thats a good question and I think that was DH's point.  He said he was in at +1800, now +1600

Correct. 

Think it’ll get down to around 1300 by season start, pending no injuries.

ESPN way too early offseason power ranking has the Bucs #12

 

Post-free agency ranking: 14Gn Arrow

Most improved position: Pass rush

This is a close call between pass rushers and cornerbacks, but let's give the nod to the pass rush here. The Bucs signed a low-risk and potentially high-reward free agent in Haason Reddick, who has produced double-digit sacks in all but one season since becoming a full-time edge rusher in 2020. On Day 3 of the draft, they selected quick edge David Walker and powerful Elijah Roberts. Walker notched 31 sacks and 191 tackles at Central Arkansas. Roberts had 17.5 sacks in two seasons at SMU, and the 278-pounder can line up on the edge or inside.
